I couldn’t repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.” - Steven Wright

"If you want to maintain a sustainable supply of fish you have to farm the fish, rather than mine them. So putting your money into fishing fleets that are going to exacerbate the problem by over-fishing is not the way to preserve the underlying asset."

yeah saw that on latest fishing world email

mustve backed a bit fast or the marlin was towing em pretty bl''dy fast,

scary stuff
If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!

Especially when you can see them!
